Everything smelt of fresh linen and there were lovely touches on arrival. We would stay again 100%, very minor is that the property is on a noisy road but we were out most of the day every day. Very close to Alton Towers, lovely local pub for a friendly welcoming drink. Dogs aren’t allowed upstairs which we didn’t know until arrival - would be good to know that at point of booking. All in all, we had a lovely relaxing break and will be back again next year. Thank you ##### Genevieve S.
